Batterson Chivers Found8tion
dependenl Exa]niner's Reportto the Trwtees for tbe year ended 31 December 2024
I have examined the fmancial slAtements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Respective RespoAsibiliÉies of Trustees andExaminer
As the Charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the fmancial state-
ments and you Collsider tbat the audit requirement of section 43(2) of tbe Charities
Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of pro-
cedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Cotnmission under
section 43(7)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis ofIndependeni Examiner's Report
My examination was carried out in accordaELce with the General Directions given by
the Charity Con)missioners. Aji examination in¢ludes a review of the accounting rec-
ords kept by the Charity and a comparison of the f￿all¢laI statemenis presented with
those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the
financial statements and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any
such tnatters. The procedures ulldertaken do not provide all the evidence tbat would
be required in an audit, and Consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the
view given by the firjancial State￿ents.
Independent Eyaminer's StalemenÉ
In connection with our exall]inatio￿ no matter has come lo my attention:
wbich gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the re-
quirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act.
to prepare fmancial statements which accord the accounting rec-
ords" and
to wmply with the accounting requirements of the Act
have not been met. or
that the statement of accounts does not cornply with ally requirements
of regulation 3 of tbe Ch￿lty (Accounts and Reports) Regulations
1995, except the requirements specified in paragraph l of Part III of
Schedule I to ttLose Regulalions. or
to which in my opinion, attention should be draTr4TA in order to enable a proper
understanding of the fll)an¢ial statements to be reached.
